What causes to have bed bugs?

Answer 1

The following is a risk assessment we use to determine the chances of an infestation. The items on the list are all likely ways to pick up a bed bug infestation. Please note that bed bugs are in no way linked to dirt or uncleanliness.

There are a few questions that you must ask yourself in order to determine your risk level with grades from 1-10, 10 being the highest risk. Take a moment to ask yourself the questions below, and for each question you can answer "yes" to, add another point to your risk level.

1. Have you previously had a problem with bed bugs?
2. Have you moved within the past three months?
3. Have you used a moving truck within the past three months?
4. Have you spent a night in a hotel in the past three months?
5. Do you use public transportation (buses, taxis, trains, planes) on a regular basis?
6. Have you had guests stay overnight in the past three months?
7. Do you purchase second hand furniture, or new furniture that was stored in a warehouse?
8. Have you noticed bites where your skin directly contacts bedding or furniture?
9. Do you have a friend or relative who has had a problem with bed bugs previously, or currently?
10. Do you worry about bed bugs?

Answer 2

Because bedbugs live by feeding on the blood of humans, and they are programmed to detect the breathing out of any humans that are asleep. They will make for the source of that breath, wherever within about 30 metres of them it is. The breath they detect and home in on will normally be from somebody who is asleep in a bed. The bedbug once it has found the bed wiill then climb into it from below, or else jump on it and then crawl into it from above and sip the blood of the occupant of that bed. That is their meal. They will then move to a hiding place very near to where that person sleeps, and may come back and have another feed on subsequent nights of the blood of that person or anybody else who sleeps in that bed then.

Answer 3

as their name suggests, they are bugs. If bugs dont bite you, then who will? maybe a tiger but i doubt , they'll live in your bed.

Answer 4

if the question is why do the bites often show up in a row of 2 or 3 spots it is because bed bugs tend to move a couple of inches and bite again.

Answer 5

Bed bugs hide anywhere they can and a matress is a populair place because it has a lot of folds and it is close to the host, a sleeping person.
